🔬 research — Client Research Department

One head skill for client-serving research: understand a client's users, market, and risk with method-matched rigor. Every mode ends with a cited, decision-ready artifact the agency can hand to the client or use to brief its own delivery. Research without a decision behind it is a report; this department makes the recommendation explicit.
